Jason Quartey

Oracle Database Administrator at a financial services firm with 501-1,000 employees

Robust security layers have supported mission-critical banking and protected sensitive data

Where I have not really enjoyed is the flexibility of doing things. You are just in a straitjacket with what they give you. The flexibility of doing things is limited compared to other platforms. The backup and restore features on that module were a bit old. I couldn't create a snapshot and provision a server in minutes. The VM features that I can use now easily were not that easy with HPE Integrity and were not even available for us. I had a lot of interaction with HPE Integrity and wanted to move to a different platform for a different experience. I did not see any products matching the Dell PowerFlex environment in terms of server capabilities when it comes to HPE Integrity. We are now using Oracle products and Oracle Data Guard. Oracle on HPE Integrity was a bit more difficult because you have to get separate patches, separate tunables, and separate kernel settings for HPE Integrity. Everything was so proprietary on HPE Integrity, making it difficult to have one solution. The Dell Linux environment with Oracle Linux OS now will be much easier.

Robust product, helped with workload management and offers remote configuration

In this specific model, it could be beneficial to have a server configuration similar to Cisco, like the kind offered in HPE Superdome Flex X280. The ability to separate the chassis is important because we are forced to use two chassis even with lower loads. So introducing more flexibility in the Superdome environment would be helpful. One other problem is energy consumption. We are forced to use both chassis even when we only need, for example, all four processors. It's not always used at full capacity every day. When underutilized, we still need to have both chassis powered, which creates an energy consumption issue. While the machine can be configured to reduce consumption, the idea of having different possible configurations with varying chassis usage, similar to the Flex version, could be interesting for this model, too. This model leverages specific features of the Intel MAP board, so switching like in the Flex might be difficult due to the motherboard switching involved.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"When it comes to high-fault tolerance, HPE Integrity is very good, and we have had very good experience with the integrity of the servers for mission-critical functions and high-fault tolerance."

"The stability is pretty good."

"The Integrity series combined with the software layer presents an excellent Mission Critical landscape that brings simplicity in a complex landscape to the foreground."

"We use it as a database server for SAP systems, and it is performing very well."

"The Integrity is the most reliable server that I have."

"If one needs a system with first class stability that may be an expensive solution, HPE Integrity is a way to go."

"Except running Oracle on Integrity servers, its ROI is well justified in customer environments."

"We currently deployed HP Integrity blade servers; they offer great versatility, redundancy, and a rapid method of deploying multiple virtual guests within 10 minutes."

More HPE Integrity pros

"We felt that the HPE's solution offered the best performance of the group."

"I would tell you that if you are looking for a product that can be used by multiple groups especially multiple groups with one point of administration, Superdome is very good."

"This product is very reliable."

"The most valuable features of HPE Superdome X are speed, performance, and resilience."

"If you're looking for a solution where you need a lot of workload and power, it's a great solution."

"CPU and memory, it's just pretty good and helps us to support the students and the teachers of the school."

"We've got a few of them, because we needed some really large machines; so far, they've been working pretty good."

"Superdome X is a system that can compete in terms of performance and uptime, but it's now standard. That is the great value. There are competitors like IBM, for example, but IBM has a propietary operating system. With Superdome X, you have a system that can run Windows, Red Hat, or VMware, but in a mission critical server."

More HPE Superdome X pros

Cons

"The quantity of the processor from Integrity, because at this moment there's a limit."

"Pricing is very high."

"The virtualization of HPE Integrity could be simplified. We have discussed this issue with HPE and hopefully, they will have an update."

"It's quite expensive, so we're considering moving some services to Linux services."

"Blade system backplane is SPOF."

"Don't do it. Go x86."

"With the announcement last year from Hewlett-Packard Enterprise that they are no longer supporting Itanium 2 processors, which means HP-UX is going to die soon in a couple of years."

"Since Intel featured this product as a mainframe class, it should perform closer to a mainframe."

More HPE Integrity cons

"I'd like to see the onboarding of some storage class memory to really expand the already very large RAM, into something that could be even much bigger."

"I know we support Windows and I think it's Red Hat, and I'd like to see more OSs supported."

"The technical support sucks, would be understating it. Because the first line and the second line support tend to give out stupid suggestions that are completely useless, and they aren't listening to anything."

"Looking back to our original purchase of Superdome X, we bought the smallest model."

"It would be helpful if you could do the maintenance completely online."

"What would make it better from my point of view is if HPE spent more time on testing with the actual built-in Red Hat Linux drivers, as opposed to always trying to say, "Use our driver.""

"I'd like to see the onboarding of some storage class memory to really expand the already very large RAM, into something that could be even much bigger."

"I know we support Windows and I think it's Red Hat, and I'd like to see more OSs supported."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is the best."

"HPE Integrity's pricing could be better."

"The price is not very expensive."

"Price-wise, the solution is very expensive."

"There is no license required to use HPE Integrity."

"There is a very expensive one-time cost with no licensing fees."

"The pricing is not very cheap. I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with one being very inexpensive, and ten being very expensive."
